SAY IT WITH CHICKEN
GIFTS FOR INVALIDS. A smart London West End provision store is making a success with gift parcels of invalid delicacies. The idea is to enable the friends of the sick to send an appropriate mark of sympathy. They are called “health parcels,” and are supposed to be composed of all the delicacies which an invalid is usually allowed, and which stimulate the appetite. Breast of chicken, hothouse grapes, brandy, jelly, oysters, and bottles of champagne are the kinds of things that figure in the parcels. They appeal to the man or woman who feels it is rather useless to add still further to the mass of flowers in the average sick room, and are attracted by a novel way of expressing sympathy.
